Golden South Sea mother-of-pearl has a color that sits between champagne and warm gold - a tone that catches light with an iridescence that shifts from amber to cream to pale gold depending on the angle. Set in rhodium over sterling silver with 0.16 carats of cubic zirconia accents that ring the MOP element, these stud earrings create a warm-toned center surrounded by cool, bright sparkle - a combination that works precisely because the contrast between the organic warmth of the MOP and the crystalline precision of the cubic zirconia is what makes each material more interesting in the presence of the other. An earring with genuine material depth at an accessible price.
